In any common place there are walls often ornamented, sometimes augmented with televisions.  The Living Wall, in a design of textiles and flora, is a sensing wallpaper that interacts via touch, motion detection, and lights to collect a greater understanding of the story of it’s environment.  It transforms the common space into one which builds a historical narrative of our engagements and experiences as we pass by.  The walls illumination is easily movable, allowing a participant in the space to reconfigure the wall’s appearance at any moment. The Living Wall challenges not only the technology we build but also how we use new technologies to change the world around us.
